Bostwick's P-47M-1-RE
The P-47M-1-RE is an excellent aircraft for high-altitude fighting, where it proves to be unrivaled in speed and maneuverability. Armed with eight deadly 12.7 mm Browning machine guns, the P-47M-1-RE can also carry bombs and rockets. This aircraft was flown by American ace George Bostwick, who fought on the Western Front and destroyed at least eight German aircraft in the air, and 6 more on the ground.
Wetmore's P-51D-10
The P-51D-10 is great at flyby and ground attacks in general! It has six excellent 12.7 mm guns with a large amount of ammo, a wide selection of bombs and rockets, and impressive dive speed. This aircraft belonged to Ray Wetmore, the eighth most successful American ace in the European war theater. He shot down 21 Luftwaffe aircraft and ended the war as a major at just 21 years old!

@Stona_WT If I already own both packs is there any way to get the title that comes with this bundle? As there is no way to purchase the pack with just the title.

The lock icon just means you haven’t received it, either by not meeting the requirements, or you have met the requirements and the game just needs to catch up and give it to you.
Personally, I find the lock icon very confusing as to me it seems like it’s not available any more… locked away…
